Jing could not be reached for comment. She posted a photo of a sunset on her Facebook page at 11:30 a.m.

Jing came here from the morning news on Denver's Fox affiliate, KDVR-TV. She grew up near Denver, where she was a star volleyball player. She played Division I volleyball at Binghamton University while studying political science, government and English.

When she was hired, Lanesey said, "Jacki is a fun and exciting person to be around, her energy is contagious."

"Jacki strikes the right balance between being a strong, serious journalist, while also the kind of person who will put a smile on your face in the morning," Fox 19 news director Kevin Roach said.

The anchor change at Channel 19 is the latest in a long list of TV departures this summer, which will bring many new faces to Cincinnati airwaves this fall. Also gone are Kit Andrews (Channel 12) and Larry Handley, Sarah Walters and Amy Wadas (Channel 9). Clyde Gray retires as Channel 9's main co-anchor later this month, and I-Team reporter Brendan Keefe leaves Channel 9 in September for an Atlanta TV station.
